will prob go w/ either samsung spinpoint f3 hd or a western digital cavair black hd 500gb or tb not sure which way to go quite yet
i am only going with that particular psu cause the current pakage it is in with the 5850 is $70 off plus 30 MIR
but my biggest question is on my motherboard and graphics card, i was wondering if i should just get an asus 790fx mobo and then CF 2 4850/4870 or go with my current plan or somewhere in between
i also plan on buying either a 23" monitor or just buying a 26" tv shortly after building this comp separate from the 900 for computer
I want this comp to be pretty good for at least a 2 years b4 i need to make any major upgrades and i do not plan to build another from scratch, like i will obviously add ram when needed but i dont not want to by a new cpu every year i want it to be able to play games like left 4 dead and star craft 2 if it every decides to show up with ease on max settings or damn close to it.
all opinions will be taken into consideration and is greatly appreciated.
